Altimetry-io

A library providing a unified way to read an altimetry data collection, independent of the underlying data representation.

• Relies on Files Collections for NetCDF files collections reading
• Can also read ZCollections format

Quick start

conda install altimetry-io

from altimetry.io import AltimetryData, FileCollectionSource

alti_data = AltimetryData(
    source=FileCollectionSource(
        path=output_dir,
        ftype="SWOT_L3_LR_SSH",
        subset="Unsmoothed"
    ),
)

ds = alti_data.query_orbit(
    cycle_number=13,
    pass_number= [153, 155, 157, 181, 183, 209, 211, 237],
    variables=["time", "latitude", "longitude", "quality_flag", "ssha_unedited"],
